Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece
Vol 8 Chapter 54: Sicily's strategic deployment (2)
Everyone has a glimpse of it.
"Syracuse really deserves our vigilance!" Sipros looked solemnly, and everyone else changed his face: Carthage was enough for them to eat, plus a weak Syracuse... ...The agreement with Sparta and Carthage made Syracuse more intact from the failure of the South Italian War, but now it has become a fishbone stuck in the throat of the Sicilian territory of the Kingdom of Dionia. .
"As long as Syracuse dares to declare war on us, then destroy it!" Créru said with a hate.
"That must wait until the victory of the Carthagin army." Leo Tizides said in a deep voice: "With our existing strength in Sicily, we cannot fight at all with two enemies at the same time!"
Milon stared at the map and thought and asked: "General Prossous... It seems that you have regarded Syracuse as an enemy. In the future, in the future, you will face the coalition of Carthage and Syracuse. You What kind of plan?"
Carthage and Syracuse are feuding, can they form an alliance? ! Some people are surprised.
Leo Tizides didn't pay attention to the look of everyone, but looked at the map with the same focus, and then said his own ideas: "My plan is... concentrate most of the soldiers in Lake Garemo (in the column) Camped near the north of Ortini, on the southern edge of the Catania plains, and will be Paragonia -"
The wooden stick of Leo Tizides pointed to a small village on the southwestern edge of the Catania Plain and continued: "The area south of the Catania Plain is mostly a mountain range of four or five hundred meters above sea level. The big troops are not easy to pass. Only from Paragonha to the south, it is better to go.
I decided to transform Paragonia into a strong defensive camp and station enough soldiers to prevent the Carthage army from breaking into the Catania plains. ”
"General Prossos." Tony Ass, the chief general of Tonys, worried about the interjection: "If Syracuse and Carthage are allied, the army of Carthage is likely to pass Syracuse. City, attacking Katis from the coastline, attacking Katanai!"
"This is very likely." Leo Tiddides nodded and said: "So I set up the camp in the north of Leotini, whether it is from Tonys or less than 40 miles from Paragoria. Once the enemy is found, our reinforcements can arrive in a few hours. At the same time, the Carthaginians want to climb the mountains and attack Leotini, and I can also reinforce nearby."
The words of Leo Tizides made the generals of Leonidini and Tonys feel relieved.
However, Milon was not satisfied. He loudly reminded: "With the defense, it is impossible to defeat the Carthage army. In the end, it is very likely that there will be a big problem!" Milon learned this profoundly, in the second gram. During the Rotonet war, he wanted to use the Crimea to block the army of Dionia, but did not expect to be led by Devers to bypass the Crimea, seized Asprostum, and attacked. Under the city of Crotone.
"Miron, you don't forget the Sikels." Leo Tizides took a wooden stick and drew a circle in the middle of the map of Sicily. He said without hesitation: "The West Kiel lives here. In the mountains, he is good at harassment and sneak attack. When Dionysius led the army to attack the northern coast of Sicily more than a decade ago, the Sikels were responsible for harassing the rear of the Carthage and creating a very good for the Carthaginians. Big troubles. Now that the Sikels are under our control, we can organize thousands or even tens of thousands of West Kyle fighters, divided into several teams, lurking in the mountains not far from the coastline, to the Jiatai The base people can also attack their logistics supplies.
The more the Carthaginians attacked the East, the longer their battles would be drawn, and the entire rear was under the attack of the Sikels, as long as we could hold the Paragoria for a long time. Ortini, Tonys, and the Carthaginians will be attacked by us if they are not attacked for a long time and the rear is constantly attacked. By that time, it was the best time for my troops to attack! ”
The confidence on the face of Leo Zidids diluted the concerns of the Chief Executive.
However, Milon still persevered and asked: "If the Carthaginians do not take the land and take the sea, go directly to the big port of Syracuse?"
Obviously, in this regard, Leo Tiddides also considered it in advance, and he said with a meaningful meaning: "This question should be answered by the Navy."
At the venue, the Diorian Third Fleet Naval Commander Flaris immediately stated: "You adults can rest assured that as long as the Carthaginians dare to come to the Syracuse Port or other coasts in eastern Sicily, our fleet All the soldiers will be sent to the sea to feed the fish and scare! In addition, according to His Majesty’s orders, the First Corps will go to Wolsey while the first fleet led by Sekleian will be ready to go south. Our third fleet meets, and within a few days, they will come to Katane. By that time, we will have more than 500 large and small warships, and even force the Carthage fleet not to dare on the south coast of Sicily. Cruise!"
"Since our navy is so powerful, why not directly stop the Carthage army from landing in Sicily?" Sikuli Chief Executive Apirosia asked with expectations.
Apirosia used to be the patriarch of a large clan in the Udine city of Mesapi. When the Mepu coalition was defeated and the Daonian army was preparing to attack Uday, he was the first to go out and get, so he got The attention of Dafos finally entered the Senate. Since Uday is not a seaside city, he is not familiar with naval battles.
"First of all, we can't know when and when the army of Carthage will land in Sicily. It takes at least six or seven hours to sail from Katana to the west end of Sicily. When our fleet arrives, maybe Carthage The landing of the people is over.” Fralios explained patiently: “In addition, Carthage’s navy is also very strong. They have at least four three-layer paddles. They are rumored to have created them. Five-story paddling ship... Also, rushing to the west end of Sicily to stop the Carthaginians from landing, and too close to the city of Carthage, the ship of its port can be rushed to the reinforcements, when our fleet will fall into Heavyen..."
The words of Flarios made Apirosia feel a little bit touched, and let the other chief executives with the same thoughts turn their minds out.
At this time, Sipros interjected: "I think... For these friendly city-states on the South Coast, we should not make the relationship so rigid. When they come for help, they sincerely tell them the difficulties we face, to them. Expressing sincere apologies and allowing them to retreat to the territory of the Carthage army when they are in the doldrums. When their towns are surrounded by Carthage and can’t resist, we can also send teams to The people there rescued..."
Felicius's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea, you can do this! With the back road, I believe that these Greek city-states will not easily surrender the Carthaginians, but also strive for more time for us!"
Leo Tizides did not speak, apparently the default.
Amiclis protested loudly: "Your eyes are only on the south coast, and the Carthaginians are also likely to attack from the north coast. Don't forget the lesson of the destruction of the old city of Messina! Now the city of Messina There are few villains, and they can't stop the attack of the Carthaginians!"
"Of course I will not forget the North Coast." Leo Tizides looked at him proudly and pointed at the map with a wooden stick: "Remember that Lijim helped Katanay and Naxos's exiles in the same year. The small town built by the Syracuse people built on the Lai Peninsula. I have decided to use the abandoned stones and wood there to rebuild a small fortress and station thousands of soldiers. Once the Carthaginians send troops Attacking the North Coast, the fortress will use a narrow terrain to at least block the Carthage army for six or seven days, when the reinforcements will arrive."
Having said that, he looked at Felicius: "If Sicily's strength is tight, I hope that the Ministry of Military Affairs can send the Seventh Corps to Messina (the station of the Seventh Army is near Lockley)."
"I don't think there is any problem at all." Felicius immediately promised: "Your Majesty has already discussed with the Military Affairs Department. As long as the war requires it, not only the Seventh Army, but also the Sixth Army and the Fifth Army. Urgently sent to Sicily."
"The unified command of these regiments?" Leo Tizides then asked again.
"The army is in Sicily, of course, it is your unified command." Felicius answered without hesitation, apparently had already obtained the consent of Daves in advance~www.readwn.com~Leo Tizides was satisfied, he again Looking at Fralios: "I think the Navy will not allow Carthage's fleet to bypass the Mile Peninsula and land near Messina."
"Of course! The south and north coastlines of Sicily near the east will be under the protection of our warships! They are absolutely safe!" Franís said firmly.
"So I am relieved!" Amigris sighed. He was a person who liked to be stable, so he would always lead the Castron people to follow the strong Dionia and wait until Dionia. Defeating Syracuse in one fell swoop and occupying most of the land of South Italy. The fact that Laos and Trina took the initiative to merge into the Kingdom of Dionia also touched him. He quickly convinced the members of the council and held citizens. At the conference, the referendum called for the participation of the Kingdom of Dionia. He can stay in the prime position of the Chief Executive of Messina for four years. This is the return of Davis and the Senate to his past contributions.
The calm was restored in the venue.
